Recorded with the Albany High School orchestra at a December concert, Reh’s rendition of “My Shot” has drawn admiring comments (“3 words: future Tony winner”) and earned a direct shout-out from the Hamilton page: “Dag LeeRehsmusic, you amaze and astonish!”

In 2016, Reh and Rah-mene McDuffie – performing as Young Noble Gentlemen – won a Grammy Foundation songwriting contest with a tune called “Fight” and received an inside look at the awards show as their prize.
